- The discussion forum for Statistics Education is available by e-mail
- subscription or as a UseNet News newsgroup (bit.listserv.edstat-l).
-
- This message is sent out on a monthly basis and provides an overview
- of some of the more important guidelines arrived at by the members of
- the list, not merely the owner:
- ===============================================================================
-
- The following guidelines have been agreed upon by the membership of this
- list, and it is hoped that you will respect them:
-
- 1) Postings should be directed to more than one person; messages which are
- clearly of value to only one (or just a few) members should be sent
- privately.
-
- 2) No individual should post more than twice per topic in a 24-hour period.
-
- 3) Postings should contain the real name of the sender, either in the
- header or the body of the message.
-
- 4) Personal attacks and insults are prohibited.
-
- Share your comments, thoughts, questions etc. with list readers by
- sending your e-mail message to the address:
- EDSTAT-L@NCSUVM.cc.ncsu.edu
-
- Send questions about the list itself, comments, suggestions and
- criticisms to me, Tim Arnold (arnold@stat.ncsu.edu).
-
- You may leave the list at any time by sending a "SIGNOFF EDSTAT-L"
- command to LISTSERV@NCSUVM.cc.ncsu.edu. Please note that this command
- must NOT be sent to the list address (EDSTAT-L@NCSUVM.cc.ncsu.edu) but
- to the LISTSERV address (LISTSERV@NCSUVM.cc.ncsu.edu).
-
- The amount of acknowledgement you wish to receive from this list upon
- completion of a mailing operation can be changed by means of "SET
- EDSTAT-L REPRO" which will insure that you receive your own postings to
- the list.
-
- Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can obtain a
- list of the available archive files by sending an "INDEX EDSTAT-L" command to
- LISTSERV@NCSUVM. These files can then be retrieved by means of a "GET EDSTAT-L
- filetype" command, or using the database search facilities of LISTSERV. Send an
- "INFO DATABASE" command for more information on the latter.
-
- Furthermore, these log files are edited into quarterly files--only the
- highlights of the discussions are kept. These quarterly files will be
- available soon, hopefully by December at least.
-
- More information on LISTSERV commands can be found in the "General
- Introduction guide", which you can retrieve by sending an "INFO GENINTRO"
- command to LISTSERV@NCSUVM.cc.ncsu.edu
